Could be much better
This app received an update on 11/16 and since then, has been having issues. Below are my list of complaints/enhancements:
1. Still does not offer a 1 app solution. I have to go to Spotify to play music and then switch back to google Home app to adjust device specific volume. Spotify will let you adjust the group card volume, but not the specific devices in the group.
2. With the launch of the new app, my Google Home no longer shows up as an option to adjust volume. I can cast to it and see it in the group card. Additionally, I’m missing a chromecast and the Google Home in the volume adjustment of a separate group card. This is poor testing.
3. The new app requires additional clicks to change the device specific volume.
4. Would like to have a feature where the assistant volume can be set higher than the media volume, but currently not available.
I really want this solution to compete with Sonos and willing to accept the short comings of the hardware since its 1/10th the price, but the software is getting really frustrating especially since it’s such an easy design fix.
